Semua Bab Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love: Bab 961 - Bab 970

Chloe seethed with anger. ‘These people are animals!’Emily stirred. Upon recognizing Chloe, her eyes instantly reddened. "Coco, I ran into these people after leaving a work team-building session. They trapped me and forced me to drink something weird. Everything after that is just a blur.""Oh, why are you acting all innocent? You were having a great time earlier!” Megan sneered.Shielding Emily behind her, Chloe shot Megan a frosty look. "Did Xavia put you up to this?""Correct. Brilliant detective work.”Megan would not dare go against Chloe without someone backing her."Are you stupid or something?"Xavia had just recently broken ties with Megan, but here she was, back as Xavia's lapdog.Megan glared at Chloe. "You don’t know squat."What could she do besides serve Xavia? Megan’s reputation had gone down the drain. Many brands had terminated their contracts with her, and she now owed so much in compensation that she would never be able to repay. Xavia, now sitting pretty a

Stella was ecstatic, clutching her phone as she paced the reception room. She daydreamed about hiring some thugs to teach Chloe a lesson. Noah would surely be pleased and would thank her for taking revenge on his behalf. She even pictured Noah bringing her on dinner dates and lavishing her with gifts. The thought made her cheeks flush.She quickly hired some local thugs online and sent them to the meeting location. She wired the agreed-upon sum and told them to “take good care” of Chloe. At four in the afternoon, the hired men reached the specified spot but could not locate the woman from Stella's photo."Where is she? I was really looking forward to this."They had been quite eager upon seeing Chloe’s photo. A gorgeous woman like her was well worth their time, pay or no pay."We've been here for half an hour. She's not going to stand us up, is she?""Do you think she's messing with us?""Let's ring her up. We have her number.""Good point, but act like you're the scalper."Jus

Chloe acted like she was mad, she came off more like a jealous woman.Joseph smirked and teased, "I'm a pervert with eyes only for you."Chloe did not reply. Giving him the cold shoulder, she turned around and stormed into the Sullivan manor.As he watched her disappear, Joseph fired up his car and made his way to Imperium. When he got there, an excited petite woman came running toward him.Vince trailed after her, yelling, "Take it easy! You're not fully recovered!”Ignoring him, Bethany ran up to Joseph. She glowed as said, "It’s been a while."Joseph smiled warmly. "When did you wake up?""Just last week," Bethany answered after counting the days on her fingers. "I wanted to see you right away, but the doctors wouldn't allow me to leave. I was bored out of my mind.""You should heed the doctor’s advice. Your well-being should be your top priority. As a healthcare worker, you should understand that,” Joseph cautioned.Back when Imperium was just getting off the ground, they

The intern was reluctant to give up. "But I really like Mr. Joseph. Please grant my wish and transfer me to your department. I'll work hard and prove myself." Joseph was her ideal man. Even though she knew there was a considerable gap between them, she knew there would be no chance at all if she did not try.Lucas' patience wore thin. He said sternly, "This is your final warning. Don't let me hear about this again. You were hired to work, not to woo your superiors. If there's a repeat of this behavior, you will be dismissed."The intern felt humiliated. Her face turned bright red and she muttered under her breath, "You're just an assistant. Stop acting all high and mighty." But not daring to pester Lucas any further, she sulked away.Lucas had other matters on his mind and did not dwell on this minor incident. He knocked on the office door and entered after receiving Joseph's approval. "Sir, I'd like to ask you about something." Lucas looked hesitant, and it was clear that he

When Joseph returned from the meeting room, he passed by Lucas' office and saw Lucas with his head on the desk, looking forlorn and dejected. "Emily rejected you?" Joseph asked with his hands in his pockets."How did you know, sir?""Your face says it all," Joseph responded.Lucas touched his face and asked in confusion, "What did my face say?""It says ‘loser,’" Joseph replied."Please stop mocking me, sir," Lucas said, smiling bitterly. He had anticipated that Emily would reject him, but he had not expected it to happen so quickly and for her to be so straightforward about it."Do you have a property in Docwood?" Joseph asked."No, but I bought a house in Aesper," Lucas replied."What about a car?""I have a car.""How much is it worth?""About 50,000 dollars."Joseph furrowed his brows. "Are you that poor?"Chloe and Emily were best friends, so it was only natural for Emily to draw comparisons between a potential boyfriend and Joseph. She might struggle to accept that
